REMOTE LEARNING PREPARATION

21 Jul 2021

As you are already aware the COVID 19 situation continues to impact on our everyday movements. At St Mary’s we need to be able move to remote learning swiftly if there is a recorded transmission of Covid 19 in this area. This email is simply to help prepare for such a situation.

Our system is using MS Teams to ensure the safety of the students in an online environment and Zoom is no longer to be used for online meetings. Class teachers and students are currently using MS Teams with students.

Our mini ipads are obsolete now as they do not support MS Teams, See Saw or some features of Google Classroom.

Could you please update the information in regard to your household’s capacity to support remote learning with your own devices and also access to the internet via the form below. If you do not have devices we aim to provide hard copies/worksheets and other materials to support students in their learning.

With your continued assistance we request that students experience cold/flu like symptoms do not attend school and encourage you to follow NSW Health advice.

We learned much from our remote learning experience last year and I’m confident we can support continued learning if this should happen again.

Many thanks

Picture Products

21 Jul 2021

We are running a Pictureproducts melamine plate activity and we'd love you to join in. Your child's unique artwork is transformed into durable, high-quality melamine Pictureplates that will last a lifetime.

Both decorative and useful, Pictureplates are simply beautiful. Children love eating off their very own Pictureplates, and as the years go by and they grow up and have their own families, their Pictureplates will bring back memories of those happy childhood years.

Your child can use photos, markers, paints and handprints to create their artworks, and you can have as many copies made as you'd like, so it's a fantastic gift idea for grandparents and other family members.

We are also offering a range of other products decorated with your child's artwork, such as the functional and beautiful Pictureclocks, plastic or ceramic mugs, water bottles and calendars.

Follow the link below for more information and to order.

This is totally an optional activity and not a fundraiser.
